Happy 2nd Birthday To Run.Chew.Sparkle


Today is my Blog's 2nd Birthday!!!!!

I honestly forgot that today was the day, until my trusty TimeHop App let me know and then it all came flooding back to me.


My first Blog Post.

So cute!!! I was down 81 pounds then, now in 2 years gaining about 10 pounds back, thanks Marathon training for all that muscle haha.

But back to my 2 year birthday for my blog. I started this blog just to really have an outlet to write my thoughts, I tend to ramble, some posts are super boring, loving, emotional, etc. I talk a lot about running, and just my life in general. I throw some food posts in there here and there too. Not as much as I used to, but I am getting  back to that soon.

I never thought this blog would be what it is. I never thought, companies would reach out to me or I would reach out to them. I never thought I would make so many new friends from it or love it as much as I do.

The last year A LOT of my posts were all about Marathon Training and then the Marathon. I love that I have that documentation. I have pictures and my feelings, but a lot of the time,  I was coming back from that run and writing it right away, those are all real and true emotion I was putting in. 

I am going to read back through some of my other posts, just to truly see how far I have come, I have 640 post, WOW.

But I want to thank everyone who has read my little Blog. Thank you for all the likes, shares and comments. It means so much to me, that you would take time out of your day to read what I have to say.

I am sorry if I don't comment or get  back right away, I try, I promise.

Thank you for being apart of my wild ride :0)

I am going to continue to grow and expand my blog this year, so stay tuned.

But I would love some insight on Posts you would like to see, Comment below!!

Have an awesome day!!

Low Point Apple Crisp

Image
At my Weight Watchers meeting yesterday, my leader told me about a low point apple crisp and I couldn't resist making it today. I love apple crisp, I don't have it often or really at all, because it can be high in points and frankly I like low maintenance  baking, so when I can find something easy and quick and low in points, well I am all game!! This apple crisp is again so easy and quick, perfect for a craving, a family gathering, party or just to have around the house. Requires only 3 or 4 ingredients to prepare this and you might even have all of it in your house right now. Apple Crisp Serving Size 4 4pp for a serving 4-5 medium apples 2 packets of Cinnamon or Maple Brown Sugar Oatmeal (preferably one that are 100-120 calories or 3pp) 8 oz of Diet Sprite or Diet 7up 5 sprays of Can't Believe It's Not Butter 1tsp of light brown sugar 8x8 baking pan Here is what I used: I actually used 5 apples because I

Perspective: My Trauma, Fear and Rejection

Well we have made it through another week of CoronaVirus, Stay Home, Social Distancing of 2020. I honestly have no clue what to call it, other than that. Today, has been 2 weeks since we closed BBW and shut down the store. Originally we had some high hopes we would have been open by yesterday, the mall sent an email saying they weren't going to open until the 19th, and then Pres. Trump extended the Social Distancing until the 30th. I honestly have no clue when I am going back to work. I am literally just trying to take it day by day and moment by moment, and week by week. I have been surviving and also Thriving during this process. I am a child of hard things. I have been through some tough shit in my day, and maybe I will get to that at some point, but we can save that for another post. Today the idea of Perspective is in my brain. If you don't know, which I am sure you do know if you follow along with me, but Rachel Hollis, whom is one of the many people I look

Chobani Flip: Key Lime Crumble

Image
First off I love yogurt!! I love low fat yogurt, flavored, Greek, plain, all kinds!! And I am always out looking for what is new and exciting in the yogurt world, I know I lead an exciting life!! So when these Chobani Flips came out, I was all about it. Unfortunately, I couldn't find them here in Florida right away, when I went home in March to New York, I was able to find them and I fell in love. There are probably at least 10 different kinds of flips, vanilla with oats, pineapple with coconut and walnuts, blueberries with chia seeds and walnuts, coconut with dark chocolate and toasted almonds, peach with dark chocolate chips and pistachios, and my favorite key lime with white chocolate chips and graham cracker pieces. The flip part of the yogurt is the cup is split up into to two sections. One section holds the Key Lime Low Fat Greek Yogurt and the other section holds the White Chocolate Pieces with Graham Cracker Pieces. You flip the fun side into the Key Lime yogurt and
